Investing in a SLUH Education

INVESTING IN YOUR FUTURE THE VALUE OF A SLUH EDUCATION

JESUIT EDUCATION IS ABOUT DEVELOPING EACH STUDENT IN AN ENVIRONMENT THAT FOSTERS THE GROWTH OF THE WHOLE PERSON. On any given day, you may be immersed in a lecture, engaged in a flipped classroom, presenting in front of a group, experimenting in a science lab, designing in an art studio, developing an app or speaking in another language. What’s more, the other students in the classroom will challenge you to stretch your potential, question the conventional, communicate effectively and think creatively. Together, you will raise the bar and better each other because it’s cool to be smart at SLUH!

YOU ARE OUR FUTURE.

FINANCIAL AID SCENARIOS SLUH ENSURES ACCESSIBILITY SLUH makes every effort to assist families who demonstrate financial eligibility, the calculated measure of a family’s need for financial assistance. Besides income (taxable and non-taxable), we take into account assets, expenses, liabilities and the number of children attending Catholic schools (K-12). Furthermore, we encourage families to bring any special circumstances to our attention. Each case is unique.
